What was fun on the Xbox is still a blast on the PlayStation 2, but the visual punch has been subdued due to the PS2's inferior graphics processor. The controls and action are definately still there, so the Sony faithful will have plenty to explore during their time with Splinter Cell. What I want to know is whether they will like it as much as their beloved Metal Gear Solid 2. I think they will, but Splinter Cell's feel is quite different, so it'll take a bit of getting used to. Some minor improvements to flow and story structure have been made; but if you're stuck somewhere and you don't know how to proceed, trial and error will be your best friend. Going slow and examining each situation is recommended for the best results, but even that will fail you every now and again. Annoyingly, a lot of the Xbox shooting bugs make a reappearance (capping someone in the head at point-blank range doesn't result in death). Worth buying if you're into this type of game, though.
